EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Fortress of Yenikale, looking towards the Sea of Azoff" takes us back to the year 1855 during the Crimean War. The artist, William Simpson, beautifully captures the essence of this historic fortress situated near Kerch. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to the imposing structure that stands proudly against a backdrop of clear blue skies and calm waters. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from the lush greenery surrounding the fortress to the intricate architectural features. During this tumultuous time in history, Yeni-Kale served as a military hospital for Russian forces. Originally constructed by Ottoman Turks in the late 17th century, it witnessed countless battles and strategic maneuvers throughout its existence. The presence of naval vessels and armed forces within this artwork reminds us of the intense military operations that took place during those years. Sailors diligently man their posts while cannons and artillery stand ready for action. This lithograph is part of a larger series called "The Seat of War in the East" which consists of forty-one stunning prints created by William Simpson. Published by Paul and Dominic Colnaghi and printed by Day and Son, these works offer a unique glimpse into one of history's most significant conflicts. Preserved at London's National Army Museum, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical document that allows us to reflect on past events with awe-inspiring clarity.
